and

There’s been some lovely weather this week, but some strong winds and mist too.
Inside and outside this week it’s been an enjoyable one for iPad paintings.
There have been some nice gentle seas this week with lots of subtle tones of grey.
Here’s a 3 minute slide show of my 2014 daily iPad paintings.

That way you have some time to see the paintings.

The year’s really getting on now, but I’m still continuing with my iPad #APAD paintings.
We’re still getting lovely seas with this mild autumn.
I’m really getting into these portraits of my friends, colloquially known as the Old Codgers and the WAGs. I know Peter Blundell well, but I’ve only recently met Richard and Mary. Peter, I’ve imagined as a Greek God in deep thought. I’ve chosen to base my portraits of Richard and Mary on first impressions. Richard, I see as an enigmatic dandy and Mary, his wife, cosmopolitan and cultured.
If you know me, watch out, you may be next!
I’ve had a full August. I’ve been away to Scarborough and Brittany as well have having a lovely staycation with Nicky. Lots of painting too.
As well as my daily iPad paintings, this post includes a portrait I made of one of my relatives, Peter Boxwell.
